The auto-enrolment scheme now has its three millionth worker – a member of staff at West Ham United.
The milestone, involving the football club's employee, was announced by the Department for Work and Pensions.
West Ham vice-chairman Karren Brady, who stars alongside Lord Alan Sugar in BBC hit show The Apprentice, backed the roll out of the Government's workplace pension scheme.
This month's automatic enrolment registration report from The Pensions Regulator showed that more than 10,000 employers of all types from charities to supermarkets, hospitals to football clubs have now automatically enrolled their workers.

Thousands of medium sized employers will follow them over the next six months.
Pensions Minister Steve Webb said: "Before automatic enrolment, pension saving in this country was at its lowest ebb with too few people having the opportunity to save into a workplace pension.
"We have restored fairness by ensuring pensions are no longer the preserve of the few.
"We have kicked off a savings revolution that will benefit millions in their retirement."
Ms Brady said: "West Ham is pleased to be supporting the auto enrolment scheme.
"It is becoming increasingly important for people to plan for their future at an earlier age. The scheme should help to make a real difference to the retirement prospects of some of the unsung stars at our club."
